A computer having configurable air vents. A louver assembly may be attached to the computer enclosure or removed therefrom so that the enclosure may be adapted to the environment in which it will be used. For a desktop or other office environment, the louver assembly may be attached to the computer enclosure. For an industrial or rack-mount setting, the louver assembly may be removed. The louver assembly may be mounted in a bezel, which itself may be removably attached to the computer enclosure. A catch on the louver assembly engages a corresponding hole or depression in the enclosure or bezel, forming a detent. The holding force of the detent may be overcome by pushing the louver assembly out of the enclosure or bezel by hand, but is sufficiently strong to hold the louver assembly in place during normal operation of the computer.
